It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

I found that to be a very good report :shock:
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Good but the super fit marine didn't take into consideration having to knock on peoples doors and wait for them to answer.

It was better than I expected, I laughed at the ex marine who said that he'd have to jog to complete the duty within 3.5 hours. :Very Happy

Was pretty chuffed with that! Nice to see the media on our side for once!

Would've liked to see some more coverage of DSA and the amount of money it is losing us though.

Did more to inform the public exactly what the issues really are than any of our ineffective CWU leaders have done.
The programme highlighted

unfair workloads
unfair competition
disputed mail volumes
competitors cherry-picking the profitable mail

Well done, Panorama :Applause :Applause :Applause
